We were really looking forward to christmas lunch at Monk Fryston hall this year as the setting is really lovely, and the christmas atmosphere really nice. Unfortunately the food doesn't do it any justice. The christmas lunch was plain and uninsteresting most of it seemed to be reheated and a lack of care taken. Big thick undercooked carrots, sprouts like...

Spent 2 nights here with my wife and had a most pleasant time. Our only issue was the shower in our room didn't work, but this was soon resolved with no problem by the receptionist and duty manager with an upgrade to a very nice room, and the shower worked just fine.
All the staff we came into contact with...

It is a while since we visited Monk Fryston Hall restaurant and we were bitterly disappointed. We have been going there for many years and our last visit was not up to expectations.
However two weeks ago we decided to try again. I am very happy to say we were delighted, both with the food and the service. It was...

Thank you for your review, it is always a pleasure to find a returning guest who has noticed the improvements we have achieved. Your praise for food and service is gratefully received.

We had a two night package here from Secret Escapes. It was great value for money and we really loved our stay here. We had an absolutely huge room, twin aspect, barrel vaulted ceiling, 4 poster bed, enormous bathroom. I believe that the hotel is refurbishing it's rooms and our room was not one that had been refurbished but it...

Thank you for your review, I am very pleased your enjoyed your two night stay with us. Selby Abbey is often overlooked as a place of local interest nearby but as you say is well worth a visit. Much of the stone for the Abbey was excavated in Monk Fryston and a recent archeological dig in our grounds showed evidence...

Thank you for your review, I am sorry your meal did not meet your expectations on this occasion. We are currently endeavouring to achieve a 2 rosette rating for our restaurant and the quality of our food has recently been very highly praised. Whilst accepting your disappointment with respect we are a hotel and not a pub/carvery and the emphasis...

I stayed here with a large party for a birthday occasion and had a really nice time. The manger was incredibly accommodating and really looked after all of my family. I'd highly recommend staying here for a nice county escape. Not too far Leeds as well.

Thank you for your review, I am delighted you enjoyed your stay with us.

Four of us have just returned from a two night secret escape deal at this lovely hotel. We had a beautiful 3 course meal on the first night and two delicious cooked breakfasts included in our deal. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. We loved sitting by the open fires in the two lounges. The drinks and bar...

Monk Fryston is an unusual hotel ... yes, it needs refurb still in some areas, but, it is clean and has a lovely atmosphere. The staff are really friendly and very helpful. Our room had been refurbed .... and was really nicely done. Too hot!! Had heating off in minutes of arriving! Bathroom was due an upgrade, but still clean....

Thank you for your review, very pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. Our chef will be delighted that you enjoyed our food.

I booked this Hotel for my wife's Birthday, what a disappointment. The Hotel is a lovely building but in dire need of some maintenance. The central heating did not work in our superior double room and when I complained I was offered other rooms but the heating was not working in those either. I was told that they were not...

Thank you for your review, I am sorry your stay with us was marred by a temporary heating issue especially as it was a special occasion for you. We have our heating engineers attending to the problem at the moment but of course that does not make up for your disappointment. Please accept our sincere apologies.

We stayed overnight after attending a wedding reception here. The hotel is located in the lovely village of Monk Fryston, which is midway between Leeds and York.
My overall impression of the place is that it needs some work. The food, drink and service were all perfectly good but the interior needs a lick of paint at the very least....
